Default Creating realistic headlight lenses

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; white-space: pre-wrap; ">I wanted to do a Levin shell for ages, so I had to think how to make it different because there are LOADS about!

After seeing the HPI bodyshell stickers were a bit lame, I had an idea to create some headlight lenses. There's a lot left to do with the shell, like roll cage, LEDs, driver, exhaust.....and mounting it.....so this is a WIP.

I haven't seen this done before but I'll be glad to bow to the person who got their first!

Hope you like the results, this is a first attempt, but how I did it is posted on my site; <a target="_blank" href="http://rcdriftuk.com/2009/09/01/creating-realistic-rc-car-headlight-lenses/ ">http://rcdriftuk.com/2009/09/01/crea...dlight-lenses/

THESE ARE NOT STICKERS BEFORE ANYONE ASKS! </span></span>

thanks dude! I try to create something useful so I'm glad you like it! Send me some pics once you have the shell, are you planning to put LEDs in ? There's quite a few Police flashing LEDs kits on eBay.....

If there's anything you want me to get hold of and review or test let me know - I'm always looking for new ideas!

Thanks again!
